I don't think that you have it quite right. It's not that Libby wasn't forth coming about not being the leaker, it's that Libby was not forth coming about the source of his own information. In other words, they were looking for someone that they could claim was told to leak the information to the press and Libby claimed that he got his information from a reporter, not Dick Cheney. The people at State told the prosecutor that they got their information from a top secret memo. It was a witch hunt, that took a wrong turn, but kept on going anyway.

So, is Libby still being prosecuted?

I think the correct question is: "Is Libby still being persecuted?" Fitzy should drop this case post haste, if he doesn't the judge should dismiss NOW, TODAY. This whole thing was a witch hunt by Fitzy as is becoming more and more apparent. It bought into the Corn/Wilson/Matthews/left-wing-moonbat conspiracy story from the get go. He should be fired, Libby should be reimbursed for all his legal expenses, as should Rove, and anyone else who had to hire a lawyer during this fiasco.

The one thing that the dems (especially Geraldo) made perfectly clear in the Clinton lie to the grand jury, is that a lie, in order to be prosecuted as purjury, had to be material to the heart of the investigation. Will someone please explain that if Armitage and Powell went public with the information, they had to get it from some other party,.....it was in the public domain and the Libby lie was not material to any investigation that Fitzgerald was proceeding with. Therefore, why is Libby being persecuted.
